Soaring By . . .

The CAS challenge this week on SCS is a sketch challenge inspired by a great card of kmahany.  I needed to play with this adorable Fly Away set by my sweet friend Becky Oehlers for Papertrey Ink.  Remember how I told you that I've been so drawn to clouds lately? I'm seeing clouds everywhere - love it!! When I saw the sketch I thought it would be perfect for a strip of cloud paper and Becky's cute airplane!  I stamped the solid airplane with Hibiscus burst ink and carefully cut the plane out.  I stamped the little star on the tail again using Ocean Tides ink, punch it out with a circle punch and added a bit of Glossy Accents for some shine!

Now, I also just got some goodies in the mail today from My Favorite Things and one of them was the brand new Die-namics Cloud Trio Die.  I had to give them a try so I die cut them using white paper and ran the clouds through again using the Swiss Dot embossing folder - cute cute!!

We posted a new challenge on the Children's Challenge Corner blog last night so if you have crafty children go take a look!! There's a prize being offered by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  Have a great day my friends - thanks for visiting!!
